Nemesis

Neath an avalanche Soft as moss I'm a creeping-in, intangible sense of loss I'm the memory you can't get out your head If I leave you now You'll wish you were somewhere else instead I'm the manta ray I'm the louse I am the photograph They found in your burned down house I'm the sound of money washing down the drain I am the pack of lies The baby that keeps you sane, hey Gates of heaven are open wide God help me baby I'm trapped inside Feel like I'm buried alive I'm, I'm the bottom line Of the joke I'm in ecstasy Spilling like bright egg-yolk I'm the thoughts you're too ashamed to ever share And I am the smell of it You're trying to wash out of your hair Gates of heaven are open wide God help me baby I'm lost inside Feels like I'm buried alive The possibilities limitless Just give me something that's more than this One shot and I'll never miss Yes I'm the babe that sleeps Through the Blitz I am a sudden and quite unexpected twist I am your one true love who sleeps with someone else I am your nemesis Baby I'm life sweet life itself, yeah, yeah (yeah) --- Nemesis - David Gray
